Hello lovely people,
Unfortunately my Dad died about a month ago. His Mum is still with us and she feels sad that she does not have many photos of him. We have lots, but I need some help.
I was going to get her a digital photo frame so she can see lots of photos, but I would also like her to be able to view the videos we have. I have done some research with digital photo frames and don't think it is possible to combine the both? If it is not what would be the cheapest and most easy to use device for her to be able to view videos? And I can get a separate photo frame.
Thank you so much for hopefully helping me.

Does she have a dvd player? You can create your own DVD's that contain videos that you have created yourself and can be played back on any dvd player.Time is a path from the past to the future and back again. The present is the crossroads of both. :cool:0

I think your mum would probably prefer a collection of hard copy prints, maybe put into an album.
What about a tablet to store/display the complete collection, Nexus 7, Tesco Hudl or the like.That gum you like is coming back in style.0 -
Thanks everyone.
I totally forgot about a DVD player. Thank you.
I was surprised that my Grandma choose an electronic photo frame, I thought she would have prefered hard copy. You just never know!

Tablet would be the best of both options, play videos and slideshows. Dont need anything as elaborate as nexus for purely displaying pice and vids.Mansion TV. Avoid at all cost's :j0
